I searched, but probably not good enough. Anyway, when im going to get on the freeway and Im almost full throttle for a couple seconds to merge then let off the gas my car kinda jolts. Not real hard but kinda like when your going to stop at a light and put it into 1st and then start going and kinda gives a jolt. Its kinda like that, dont know how else to explain it. ROFL . Anyway Im kinda worried as to why its doing this, I do need new plugs, wires, and an air filter. And I also have a massive crack in my exhaust manifold that im gonna replace soon. Dont know whats causing this, does anyone else?? Any help is appeciated. :D
 
the same thing happens to me, when i'm in 2nd gear and i hit 5rpms it jolts, someone told me i need to replace the fuel filter
 
When im shifting i can hear the bov and it sounds fine and everything is fine. Its only when im almost full throttle and let off kinda fast. Otherwise its fine. Is there something I can do to try and get the bov to not stick?
 
I saw another post on something like this and one of the wisemen said maybe the plugs are causing a miss. So I guess I will just not push it so hard until I get my maintence done. Ill let you all know if plugs helps or not. THanks for the help.

Just wondering can a sticky BOV mess up your idle?
Im not sure but I would doubt it because your not making any boost. So my guess would be no, but I could be wrong.
